We will be discussing what to purchase for the library based on the director requests, upcoming fund raising efforts and more!

Savers Fundraiser!

Donate Gently Used Items to Support the Ashby Library!

The Ashby Library Homeschool Co-op and the Friends of the Ashby Free Public Library are partnering with Savers to give useful items a second life while raising funds for library programming!

Town Wide Yard Sale & Book Sale

Thank you for making our 3-day book sale a big success!

With the Smithsonian exhibit on the way, we needed to clear space and thanks to you, we’re nearly there! We loved seeing so many new faces and welcoming new members to the Friends of the Ashby Library!

Special thanks to new Friend Lisa Salem for suggesting we donate unsold books to the Savers Fundraiser. It’s a great way to raise funds and reduce waste. Plus, anyone in town can donate their items!

All proceeds raised by the Friends support programs like the Fused Glass Workshop, kids’ art gallery, AshbyFest, and more!
